Explain revealing of opaque types in layout_of ParamEnv

r? `@compiler-errors`

~~I feel like `layout_of` is doing too many things at once, and I don't really know why. It could allow us to if callers could decide whether to reveal opaque types.~~

Looks like this also exists as a performance optimization. While we could probably figure out a way to do this, all the ones I came up with are fragile as `layout_of` callers now suddenly need to be careful what ParamEnv they pass in.
